Goose Gate Cafe in Hockley: Nepalese Dumplings and Chicken Biryani.
Goose Gate Cafe in Hockley is located (unsurprisingly) on Goose Gate in Hockley. At first sight you might think that it is just another cafe selling lattes and sandwiches, and to some extent you are right. But look closer, come inside and you will find a Nepalese chef serving up food from his homeland. I…
Ghormeh Sabzi – Persian Lamb + Herb Stew at Pistachio

Charcoal Grilled Chicken at Chappati Junction
Chappati Junction in Hyson Green lies on the corner of Radford Road and Selhurst Street. It is ‘apparently’ the home of the ‘Curry King but more importantly I heard that it was one of the few spots in the area selling Charcoal Grilled Chicken. I really love a bit of chicken cooked on the grill…

Five “New” Bites I had in Nottingham in 2015 that I am still thinking about!
